I worked them hard on the price. They had them on sale at 599 ea. They were at 645.00 week or so ago.
I low balled them with an offer of 525.00 ea, they came back with 595.00 and the hat.

I think the forged wheels look amazing and much better than the stock (mainly because I do not care for black wheels). I wish I could justify the cost to myself. Looking forward to seeing pics.

Forged wheels are great and with the reduced weight it really helps with the feel and response of the car.

I just ordered mine yesterday. I'd been thinking about it for a while now and I decided to pull the trigger. @blu_fl5_ctr ... Maybe I'll see you ripping down the road in Cincy. In fact I think I did in Fairfield the other night....

Wasn't me, I do plan on C&C at Zakira's garage, and one in Nky in April

Any chance you can weight it before mounting the tire?
I like how they look but have to wait considering I just ordered a bunch of other parts.

The reason I went with apex, also yeah I was aware of the ball seat design of the stock forged wheels.
